Oh, jeez, I've been sucked into the Wild Idea Zone...
They're cubes, see, but they are made of PVC pipe, 24 inches on a side. Scoring is done by swimming -- oops, that's the 2007 game -- driving up and down ramps to place colored cubes into a horizontal 5x5 grid. You can push the cubes through the grid in either direction, and there is no penalty for pushing another alliances cubes out of the grid.
A tetra in the lowest row of the grid is worth one point, second row is worth 2, etc. The top row, which you will readily see is over eight feet in the air, is worth five points. Bonuses are scored for four or five in a row, vertically, diagonally or horizontally.
I haven't worked out autonomous goals because of this pounding pain in my temples. I'll leave it to the more feverish high schoolers among you.
